The Television and Sound Production program is a

two-year hands-on course. The program includes a

student-run record label and video production house

where students will acquire video and audio production

skills while producing commercial music releases and

videos for the community. Students will be able to

combine artistic and/or musical talent with technical

knowledge to produce original broadcast quality video

and audio products. Through independent and group

activities, students gradually build the skills necessary

to work in a variety of communications-based industries

and to pursue a post-secondary degree in video or
